Electronic Medical Record System Access
Practices with Advanced Electronic Health Information
Capacity
Percent of primary care doctors reporting at least 9 of 14
clinical IT functions*
*The 14 functions include: electronic medical records; the ability to prescribe medicine and order tests electronically;
electronic access to test results, Rx alerts, clinical notes; a computerized system for tracking lab tests, guidelines, alerts to
provide patients with test results, preventive/follow-up care reminders; and a computerized list of patients by diagnosis,
medications, and due date for tests or preventive care.

Capacity
Percentage of primary care doctors reporting at least 7 of
14 clinical IT functions*
Notes: The 14 Clinical IT functions include: EMR, EMR access to other doctors, outside offices and patients; the routine use of
ordering tests, writing prescriptions, accessing test results, accessing hospital records electronically; using the computer for
reminders, Rx alerts, prompt tests results; diagnoses, medications and patients due for care that are easy to check.
